zOOm-zOOm... when you head on over there, could you get info on when it'll be released, pricing, dyno (although I think most people would rather see a MT dyno), and some pics of the cans themselves...

I went to pick up my exhaust when I said I would sorry I havent posted back here about it as of yet.
So I asked the ETA on the rx-8 exhaust and they said that it was ready to roll as far as development on the project and they didnt know a date for the exhaust for it to be mass produced, that the people with the head people make those calls.
They know its wanted and its a good market for it but I didnt get any final dates. :P
rx8man04 is right on the titanium versionb of the exhaust. I asked em bout that too

In that thread I met up with bobclevenger and he recorded the exhaust. The sound clips linked there. I didnt know how much to press on exhaust etc but that is the first sounds online for it.

zOOm-zOOm, do you happen to know if the 4" double walled stainless steel tips are available from Magnaflow as just tips? (can you confirm that your tips overall diameters are 4" too please). And if they are, do you know if they could be fitted to a stock muffler? I think this would be a good solution. Thanks.

They do look cool, but what are the length (and other dimentions) of these tips? If I'm ordering these things internationally, I want to be sure that they fit, and don't melt plastic.
The reason for this is that I'm seriously thinking about adding some nice tips to my stock muffler, and replacing my midpipe (high flow cat midpipe/straight through midpipe). Hopefully this way I'll keep the noise down a little, but still gain some worthwhile horses.

My polished stainless-steel 4" tips have arrived from Magnaflow!!... :D They look cool. 
Now I need to fit them (or have them fitted anyway).
Now I know that welding stainless to mild steel is ideally done with T.I.G., but I don't have access to a T.I.G. welder, and my friendly local garage thinks that they can M.I.G. them on (although it will discolour the tips slightly at the weld - but as this isn't a visible point, it doesn't bother me too much).
Do you guys think I shall do it (M.I.G. them on)?? What are the risks of doing this?? And will the welds be good enough???
Thanks.
